Doll incorporating a mobile telephone

ABSTRACT

A toy in the form of a doll, provided with major enhancements including the incorporation of a mobile telephone of special characteristics, with the option also of having a school calculator, sound effects and even a small radio set, offering the advantage that this doll fitted with a telephone, through being primarily intended for children, may have the doll&#39;s telephone hooked up to a direct line to the telephone of the parents or any person in their charge, so that direct communication will be set up by simply pressing a button.

DESCRIPTIVE REPORT

[0001] The invention we refer to in the body of the present descriptive report and with the aid of the complementary accompanying drawings is a toy in the form of a doll, provided with major enhancements consisting of the incorporation of a mobile telephone of special characteristics, with the option also of having a school calculator, sound effects and even a small radio set, offering the advantage that this doll fitted with a telephone, through being primarily intended for children, may have the doll's telephone hooked up to a direct line to the telephone of the parents or any person in their charge, so that direct communication will be set up by simply pressing a button, being extremely useful in the event of the child getting lost through remaining in contact with its mother in this case and assisting its recovery, provided with structural and constitutional features that differ substantially from all the means and mobile telephones known at this time, all these reasons, in conjunction with its innovative qualities and practical utility, are what furnish it with adequate foundations for obtaining the privilege of exclusivity being applied for in reference to its manufacture and sale by the holder in Spain as a consequence of the present registration of the Utility Model to which it is attached.

[0002] The telephone built into a doll serving as a child's toy has a different concept from common mobile telephones and its purchase cost will be very economical, being a protective element for children in their mothers' eyes, while not requiring the technology of current mobile telephones, nor the Internet, nor call memory, nor the majority of advances in mobile telephony.

[0003] In general terms, apart from the answer and hang up functions and operating switch, the doll enhanced with a built-in mobile telephone covered by this registration would have other accessories intended for children, such as a video game of the simplest sort, provided with a pair of buttons that would only have to be pressed once to call up directly the number chosen by its mother or that of its best friend (this gives the mother the assurance that her child can get in contact with her by simply pressing a button).

[0004] Another variation in respect of a normal mobile telephone is that of the tones, so that the noise produced on pressing the buttons may be amusing for children, such as for instance noises of out of space, special weapons, blows and others, usable when playing with the doll, which will constitute a toy.

[0005] For clearer understanding of the general features described above some drawings are adjoined showing graphically represented in schematic form one case of a practical embodiment of the doll enhanced with a built-in telephone to which we have been referring, while making it quite plain that, in view of the primarily informative nature of the drawings in question, the figures designed in them should be examined in the broadest perspective without any limitation of any kind.

[0006] The figures represented in the adjoining drawings show as specified below:

[0007]FIG. 1. Perspective projection of the doll with its internal built-in telephone, which remains in the child's hand in the closed position.

[0008]FIG. 2. Perspective of the doll seen from behind in the action of opening the mobile telephone flap, revealing the operating controls of the mobile telephone and its display, which may be used as a simple video game, the doll having one of its arms in the raised position, so that it may hold the aerial of the mobile telephone or radio.

[0009]FIG. 3. Elevational side view of the doll showing the hinged flap in the raised position and ready for use.

[0010]FIG. 4. Perspective projection of the mobile telephone housed in the doll, with the hinged flap of the telephone open and the child making a call or playing with the simple video game, revealing the buttons, which may be a variable number for making calls, and provided with a button of a given colour which, when pressed, sets up a direct link with the telephone of the mother or person designated for the purpose.

[0011]FIG. 5. Perspective of the child making a call with the mobile telephone built into the toy doll.

[0012] In reference to the adjoining drawings, it should be stated that the different figures shown in them include numerical annotations relating to the descriptions of their features and operation which are made below, thereby facilitating their immediate localisation, 1 being the number of the toy, exhibiting a variable outer form, with the option of having one of its arms -2- in the raised position in order to act as an aerial for the mobile telephone, the actual doll -1- incorporating the built-in mobile telephone -3-, provided with a hinged flap -4-, which simulates the back of the doll when in the closed position.

[0013] The hinged flap -4- of the mobile telephone -3- is lifted up in the direction of the arrow -5- by means of the hand -6- of the user, who in this case will be a child, pivoting on the hinge -10-, the mobile telephone -3- having on its front panel the display -7- and a set of keys -8- to make the calls, while being provided with another key -9- that is differentiated from the others by its size or colour, which, by merely being pressed, will automatically call up a given telephone, which may be that of the mother or of a specific person of trust, in the event of the child getting lost, so that the child can be located at all times.

[0014] The mobile telephone -3- built-into the body of the doll -1- will be of special characteristics different from common mobile telephones as on the one hand it lacks the technology of common mobile telephones, having neither connection to the Internet, nor call memory nor most of the advances of mobile telephony, whereas on the other hand it has features typical of toys, such as special sounds when the keys are depressed, with the option of being provided with a video game appearing on the display -7- as well as other toy effects not specified.

[0015] Considering that each and every one of the parts making up the doll enhanced with a built-in mobile telephone that is the object of the invention have been amply described, it only remains for us to state the possibility that its different parts may be made in a variety of materials, shapes, sizes and colours, while the figure of the doll could even take on a configuration different from that of a doll, such as a car or the like, with the option likewise of its constitution including those variations of a constructional type that practice may so advocate, providing that they are not capable of altering the essential points which represent the object of the present Utility Model registration. 

1. Doll enhanced with a built-in mobile telephone, essentially characterised in that in its part corresponding to the back the doll has a cavity in which the mobile telephone is housed and secured, the actual doll having one of its arms in the raised position to constitute the aerial of the mobile telephone.
 2. Doll enhanced with a built-in mobile telephone according to the previous claim, essentially characterised in that the mobile telephone housed in the doll has a folding lid, which, when in the closed position, forms an anatomic part of the back of the doll, being provided with a pushbutton, besides the call keypad, which, when pressed, is directly connected to a telephone that establishes contact with the mother or a relative of the child at all times.
